Ask Italian - Spring Street

We had a small event on Sunday (14 December) with the girls, and we had such a great time. We really enjoyed the atmosphere, the delicious food we ate everything, nothing was left on the plates! The Christmas decorations were amazing and created the perfect festive vibe. Basir, the manager, was absolutely fantastic. He helped us so much throughout our brunch and made us feel welcome from the very beginning until the end. And Victoria was lovely, very friendly, and assisted us with our orders. I highly recommend this place if you want to feel truly welcomed, enjoy great food, and appreciate beautiful design. We will definitely be back!

This Ask Italian was top notch Having been to an Ask Italian and not getting the service we expected, my wife complained and we were offered a complementary main meal and a drink at any branch. We opted for the Ask Italian in Spring Street, off Sussex Gardens in Lancaster Gate. There we were met by Fuad, who gave us a choice of tables and reassured us that no money would exchange hands. Wow! This Ask Italian was a breath of fresh air. And when we settled down we were provided with a non-alcoholic version of a Limoncello. Salute per Tutti! We opted for Calzone pizzas. Both of them were wrapped but Fuad gave us the option of having it unwrapped, which we took. The tasty Calzone Carne Piccante contained pepperoni, ham, beef and red wine ragu, fresh chillies, mushrooms, tomato sauce, and mozzarella. It had a nice crispy base with a hint of char from the oven with fresh toppings which were washed down with a non-alcoholic Peroni. My wife went for a Calzone Mushroom and Truffle with Chicken. The flavours really shone through giving it a wonderful taste. The main meal was plenty but there was enough room to share one dessert, and it had to be a White Chocolate Pistachio Tart. It was so delicious that it was heartbreaking to share. If you are into Mocktails, try the cherry one. It has such a strong taste that it feels like it’s alcoholic. A mint tea with leaves was equally refreshing. The food, the ambience and the staff, Fuad and Besem, were super friendly and professional in their approach. Although our first experience in another branch of Ask Italian had not been good, these guys were able to restore the reputation of the brand a hundred times over. If you are contemplating on going to Ask Italian, go to this one and you won’t be disappointed. It’s big but also cosy, just off the main Bayswater Road, so feels exclusive. Everything about this branch is top notch, including the clean toilets. I will definitely be coming back. It’s five star service from start to finish.

The food was really delicious and the portions sizes were perfect. The Restaurant had a really nice, chill ambience and our waitress Kasia was just amazing! I would recommend this place a lot!
